Also why does PN need to send so many duplicate emails?

The stats for my account just say this:
Paid-For Usage Free: Total usage
Web 66% 0% 66%
Gaming 26% 0% 26%
Streaming 8% 0% 8%
Total usage so far 100% 0% 100%
Everything else is 0%.
Does youtube count as web or streaming? Does gaming include all online gaming or just consoles? What about podcasts? There's loads of unknowns here.
I wish there was a kind of PAYG product without shaping. If PN had this I'd go for it.
I have been considering the unlimited product but the shaping is more restrictive than BBYW2.

It will tell you when, how much, and which application is using your bandwidth, and can be restricted to just the internet traffic.
PS - then give up like I did, and go for unllimited.
PPS - xbox traffic is probably negligable.

@tonycollinet: Everyone says xbox traffic is small but I have 26% of gaming use according to PN.

I would be grateful for a detailed answer to the other questions there about price limit and usage allowance too.

It's posssible that the networks team may be able to generate this information, but it's way above access to what I have.

Pro is exactly the same as our old PAYG service, with a 15GB limit. If you go over your usage allowance you can elect to pay for more usage in a PAYG fashion.
I've passed your ticket onto our Networks Team.
